Under "Manual Partitioning" screen, I get
    + New Fedora 18 installation
    + Unknown Linux
    ...
    + Fedora Linux 17
    + Unknown Linux
    ...
What do I do then?

I would think that I just have to point to partition that Fedora-18 will
be installed.  In this case, overwriting old Fedora-17 (/dev/sda5).
But, I can't get Fedora-18 to point to /dev/sda5.
